Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

IrelandThe guesthouse itself was fabulously decorated, and the room was fresh and clean, and the beds were comfortable. It's in a fantastic location within 10 minutes of a walk to the train station and 10 minutes in the other direction to the city centre. Fabulous outdoor facilities with plenty of seating overlooking the docks. Every staff member we came in contact with was so friendly and helpful, from front of house, breakfast staff, housekeeping, right down to the maintenance man! Breakfast was really enjoyable, too. Everything was fresh and excellent value. We will definitely stay again as we could fault anything.

IrelandOur room was downstairs off reception, so could hear everyone in & out and all conversations. That was the only downside, but that was just where our room was located. Can't give any other fault on the property. Everything else was top notch. Would highly recommend & will stay again.
The location was perfect!! Very central and walking distance to everything. Staff were very helpful with any questions. And also allowed us to leave the car parked for a spell after check out time, which was great as we were able to have a wander around city before heading home- and without the headache and cost of finding parking elsewhere. Room was lovely & clean. Great value for money.

United StatesThe terrace view is much to be desired. Though not a major issue, we had to give a specific time we would be eating breakfast. Most inns give you a range so you aren’t tied down while on holiday. We stayed other places who had an equally small dining area and we did not have to set a time.
Our Victorian style room was lovely with very comfortable beds.

United KingdomWe were disappointed not to have any kind of view from our room in contrast to the stunning river and city scape that most rooms enjoy. Our windows were very small and high so we couldn’t even look out onto the steep car park the front. In addition we were surprised to be placed in a triple room when we had booked a double/ twin. There were no other rooms to swap to sadly.
Good location, safe and well run, characterful, nice outside seating area with stunning views Very good bus service running from just outside into centre.
